- Troubleshoot complex Layer 3–7 network and application issues using Wireshark and HAR analysis.
- Implement Infrastructure-as-Code, secrets management, and operational automation.
- Lead cross-functional projects, mentor engineers, and maintain technical documentation.
- Participate as a secondary on-call escalation resource.
Required Skills
- 8+ years of enterprise hybrid/multi-cloud networking experience.
- Strong expertise in AWS, Azure, DNS, BGP, OSPF, EIGRP, GSLB, ECMP, VRRP/HSRP, SD-WAN, MPLS, VPNs, and cloud networking.
- Experience with Python, Bash, Ansible, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Linux, HashiCorp Vault, Azure Key Vault, and AWS Secrets Manager.
- Knowledge of Kubernetes networking (EKS, AKS, OpenShift).
- Strong troubleshooting, automation, documentation, and communication skills.
- Experience with Agile and ITSM environments.
Preferred Skills
- F5 BIG-IP or other ADC platforms.
- NGINX/NGINX Plus.
- Zscaler or similar cloud security solutions.
- Experience in regulated industries.
- Familiarity with AI-assisted engineering tools.
